:''The Powered Masters are an [[Autobot]] [[subgroup]] in the [[Zone]] portion of the [[Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

The '''Powered Masters''' are an elite trio of high-ranking Autobots, gifted with incredible size, strength and skill.  Together or separately, they're more than a match for any one of [[Violen Jiger]]'s [[Nine Great Demon Generals]].

The Powered Masters are:

*[[Dai Atlas]], the [[Supreme Commander]] of the Autobots.

*[[Sonic Bomber]], Dai Atlas' fun-loving second in command.

*[[Road Fire]], the other guy.

The three Powered Masters can combine to form [[Big Powered]].  Dai Atlas can also combine with his teammates individually, forming [[Sky Powered]] when combined with Sonic Bomber and [[Land Powered]] when combined with Road Fire.

==Fiction==
===''Zone'' animation===

After the [[Nine Great Demon Generals]] destroyed planet [[Feminia]], the Powered Masters [[Dai Atlas]] and [[Sonic Bomber]] arrived to rescue [[Victory Saber]] from certain doom.  They then headed to planet [[Earth]] to stop the Decepticons from obtaining the [[Zodiac]], destroying [[Trypticon (G1)|Trypticon]], [[Devastator (G1)|Devastator]], [[King Poseidon]] and [[Predaking]] in the process. {{storylink|Enter the New Supreme Commander, Dai Atlas!}}

===''Zone'' comic and story pages===

To counter the [[Micro|Autobot Zone]], [[Violen Jiger]] ordered his [[Nine Great Demon Generals]] on a campaign to conquer planets and create a [[Decepticon Zone]].  The Decepticons attacked planet [[Feminia]] and destroyed it completely, with Victory Saber lost in the destruction.  However, Dai Atlas and [[Sonic Bomber]], the [[Powered Master]] space explorers, had arrived in time to rescue the badly wounded Autobot [[Supreme Commander]].  The Decepticons then shifted their focus to [[Earth]], where they hoped to obtain a powerful energy source called the [[Zodiac]].  Dai Atlas and Sonic Bomber intercepted them on Earth, defeated them, and regained the Zodiac.  Impressed with Dai Atlas' courage and power, and too injured to lead any longer, Victory Saber inaugerated Dai Atlas as the new Supreme Commander of the Autobots. {{storylink|Zone (manga)|Transformers: Zone}}

Dai Atlas helped to complete the Zone Operation, leaving Victory Saber relieved he had passed the role of Supreme Commander on to him. {{storylink|Zone (story page)|Zone Part 4}} Soon after, Evil Spirit General [[BlackZarak]] attacked the Earth and took [[Landshaker]] and [[Sky Hyper]] hostage.  Driven by the need to rescue their comrades, the Pwoered Masters defeated BlackZarak and rescued their friends. {{storylink|Zone (story page)|Zone Part 5}}

The Powered Masters then focused their attention on Super-God General [[Overlord]] and Saurian General [[Trypticon (G1)|Trypticon]], whom they vowed to defeat in under eight seconds.  True to their word, they beat them within the time limit. {{storylink|Zone (story page)|Zone Part 6}}

Violen Jiger then created [[Metrotitan]] as a rival for Dai Atlas and unleashed him on the Lunar Zone Base on Earth's [[Moon (moon)|moon]].  Dai Atlas heard the SOS and rushed to aid Sonic Bomber in battle. {{storylink|Zone (story page)|Zone Part 8}}  Dai Atlas arrived and combined with Sonic Bomber into [[Sky Powered]], but they were quickly frozen solid by Metrotitan's Freeze Beam Gun.  All hope seemed lost until [[Road Fire]], the third Powered Master, appeared and took Metrotitan out.  Freed, Dai Atlas and Sonic Bomber happily welcomed Road Fire into the club. {{storylink|Zone (story page)|Zone Part 9}}

Violen Jiger at last came out of the shadows and attacked the Earth in person.  The Powered Masters attempted to stop him with their "Triple Powered Attack" but failed.  Violen Jiger escaped back to the [[Tenth Planet]] with the Zodiac and a [[Galaxy Rocket]] full of hostages.  The Powered Masters then combined into [[Big Powered]] and gave chase. {{storylink|Zone (story page)|Zone Part 10}}

Arriving at the [[Tenth Planet]], Violen Jiger split into his three forms, Vion, Lenja and Igern, and attacked.  The Powered Masters quickly destroyed them, but the battle was not over. {{storylink|Zone (story page)|Zone Part 11}}  Violen Jiger returned as a horrible phoenix-thing and attacked.  Upgraded with the power of the Zodiac, the Powered Masters combined into Big Powered yet again, but this time their strength was enhanced thirty-fold.  They flew through Violen Jiger and destroyed him with the "Powered Rainbow Attack".  The Zodiac then reformed the desolate Tenth Planet into a lush utopia where [[human]]s and robots could live in harmony. {{storylink|Zone (story page)|Zone Part 12}}

==Toys==
Although it is a common misconception that the Powered Master toys all featured motorized action, in fact, they do not share any kind of common gimmick.

Dai Atlas is the figure with the motorized action - powered by two AA batteries, his motor drives his rubber treads, allowing him to roll forward or backwards in any of his three modes ([[Optimus Prime (G1)|Star Convoy]] featured a similar gimmick, but was not included in the Powered Master subgroup). Sonic Bomber and Roadfire, conversely, simply feature [[Automorph|spring-loaded actions]] in their transformations.


==Note==
*Dai Atlas, Sonic Bomber, and Road Fire are also known as ''The Hero of the Earth'', ''The Warrior of the Wind'', and ''The Brave of the Fire'' respectively.
